No confirmed public robotaxi trials have been located for Nottingham, and no specific council AV stance has been found in public documents.
Nottingham is a blank slate for robotaxis. Watch for national framework developments and any operator expansion announcements.
No documented position — Nottingham has not yet featured in the UK's AV conversation.
The UK's national framework — the Automated Vehicles Act 2024, which received Royal Assent in May 2024 — creates the legal basis for commercial self-driving services, with wider commercial deployment targeted from 2027. Nottingham's position on that timeline depends on local trial history, transport authority readiness and operator expansion decisions. London's Uber x Wayve service, live since September 2026, is the template: supervised robotaxis booked through the Uber app, expanding toward fully driverless operation as the law and safety record allow.

No. No confirmed public robotaxi service or trials operate in the city yet.
The UK government targets wider commercial self-driving deployment from 2027 under the Automated Vehicles Act 2024. No city-specific launch date for Nottingham has been confirmed.
Currently the only public route is the Uber app in London, where Uber x Wayve autonomous Ford Mustang Mach-Es operate with safety operators onboard. Other cities will follow as services expand.
Nationally — the Automated Vehicles Act 2024 establishes the authorisation regime, with the Department for Transport and the authorised self-driving entity (ASDE) model applying UK-wide, alongside the local transport authority.
